Suspension of Malta-Glasgow KM flights (1)

We retired to Gozo in October 2007 from Edinburgh, after spending many happy holidays on Gozo. We have introduced many friends and family to this lovely island and were expecting many of them to visit us in our retirement.

Also we have school age grandchildren who still live in Scotland and we had planned to fly backwards and forwards several times a year to visit them. Now that Air Malta have scrapped direct flights to Scotland this has all been made impractical.

We hope another airline takes over what was always a busy route. If no one does we will probably have to move to somewhere like Spain from where we can fly to Scotland easily.

Maybe this kind of event explains why, in our apartment block of six, ours is the only one occupied. And ours may not be occupied much longer.

We know we can fly with BA to Scotland and have done so but would not care to repeat it. Last time it took 12 hours from door to door: Gozo - ferry - Luqa - Gatwick - Edinburgh is very tiring. We have taken less time to fly from Scotland to Canada.

I appeal to Air Malta to reconsider this decision. They have about 30 flights a week to London, can't you give at least one flight to Scotland?
